10．Tim Cook，the CEO of Apple，showed off their newest device （裝置），the Apple Watch．Mr．Cook said it is the"most personal"device Apple has ever created．
The Apple Watch is a very small computer a person wears on his or her wrist （手腕）．An Apple Watch will be able to do many of the same things as an iPhone．It will show email，texts，news，health readings and other information．It will be different from just seeing what is on your phone．
Like a phone，you will be able to receive calls on your wrist．Mr．Cook smiled while describing this．"I've been wanting to do this since I was five years old，"he said．"The day is finally here．"Twenty years ago，a comic strip hero named Dick Tracy talked into his wrist watch，but until now，that has only been something possible in the future．
The watches will be available in stores in late April．They will be sold at different prices，beginning at $349．But the high-end model will be thousands of dollars．
Apple hopes to excite users so they will want to buy and wear computers on their bodies．The first smartwatches from Samsung，Sony and LG have not been selling well．Only five million smartwatches were sold last year．
One problem with Apple Watch is that you need an iPhone on your body，or nearby，to make this watch fully functional．Like a phone，it will also need to be charged （充電） each night．It remains to be seen whether people really want to carry both a smartphone and a smartwatch．

42．It is clear that Tim CookB．
A．was the creator of the Apple Watch 
B．was proud of their new product
C．is a better CEO than Steve Jobs was
D．is a true fan of comic strips

A．receive text messages                     
B．a(chǎn)nswer phone calls
C．read the health                              
D．watch comic strips
45．We learn from the passage thatD．
A．the new device must be charged at night
B．users don't care carrying both a smartphone and a smartwatch
C．Apple Watch will be useless without an iPhone nearby
D．the new products of Apple will be of different prices．

分析 蘋果的首席執(zhí)行官蒂姆庫克，展示了他們最新的設(shè)備蘋果手表．庫克先生說它是蘋果曾經(jīng)創(chuàng)造的"最個性化的"設(shè)備．
 蘋果手表是一個戴在他/她的手腕上非常小的電腦．將帶有肩帶的三個模型連接到你的手腕上．蘋果手表將像手機(jī)一樣能夠做許多相同的事情．它將顯示電子郵件、文本、新聞、健康閱讀和其他信息．這些應(yīng)用程序是為手表定制的．它將不同于只在手機(jī)中所看到的．
像手機(jī)一樣，你就可以在你的手腕上接電話．描述這個時，庫克先生微笑著．"自我五歲以來我一直想這樣做，"他說，"這一天終于來了．"幾十年前，一個名叫迪克特雷西的漫畫英雄談?wù)摰剿氖直�，但直到現(xiàn)在，只有在未來是可能的．
 庫克先生說你可以捕捉和發(fā)送你的心跳到另一個人的蘋果手表上．"這是一個更接近的方式告訴別人你對他們的看法，"他說，"我希望有人送我一個．
 該手表將在四月下旬發(fā)售．他們將以不同的價格出售，開始以349美元到數(shù)千元的高端機(jī)型．蘋果希望刺激消費者，因此他們會想買佩戴在身上的電腦．三星、索尼和LG的第一款智能手表也沒有賣的很好．去年只出售了五百萬的智能手表．另一個可穿戴電腦谷歌玻璃眼鏡不再在市場上銷售．像手機(jī)一樣，每晚它也將需要充電．人們是否真的想攜帶智能手機(jī)和智能手表還要拭目以待．

20．To do anything and get anywhere you've got to be a dreamer first．A long time ago I used to dream about being a real actor and now it's come true．
Several teachers at school in Liverpool had a special influence on me．I went to Hayworth Street School，where there was an English and art teacher called Mr．Jackson．He was quite strict，but if he went out of the room for a minute，he'd ask me to keep the class in good order．I was only 12but he'd say，"Tommy，get up there and tell the class a story．"And I did．And it was like nothing，it was easy．
Then，at Venice Street，ther was an English teacher called Mr．Vurnette．He ran a theatre．He took us all down there once a year and I remembered looking at the stage and thinking，"Wow!That's great!I love that．"So from an early age acting was calling me．
I moved schools again and ended up going to Walton Technical College，and I stayed there until I was 16．Elwyn Jones was another English teacher who encouraged me to write．
So I guess it was these teachers who encouraged me and stopped me going wrong．
The biggest influence on my life，without any doubt，was my mother，F(xiàn)eggy．At the age of 86，she's still a great driving force．She bought me my first banjo when I was 17．I started playing in the pubs and clubs and began to see myself as a performer，even though I got into the construction industry after graduation．
So I learned a lot at school and at home，and I was able to take this on and use it positively．
I'm probably learning more now at 62than ever before．I would like to think there are still a few things I haven't done and that I will do in the short time I have left．I'm still dreaming．

47．What can we know about the author from the passage？D
A．He is working in the construction industry at present．
B．He regarded Mr．Jackson as the greatest teacher in his life．
C．He performed badly so he had to change schools frequently．
D．He showed great interest in acting when he was young．
48．The underlined word"banjo"in Paragraph 6might beA．
A．a(chǎn) musical instrument    
B．a(chǎn) toy    
C．a(chǎn) recorder    
D．a(chǎn) camera
49．Who first gave the author an opportunity to perform for others？C
A．Elwyn Jones      
B．Mr．Vurnette    
C．Mr．Jackson   
D．His mother
50．What does the author mainly tell us in the passage？B
A．Teachers help us more than anyone else．
B．Being a dreamer is important for everyone．
C．Mother is always standing with her child．
D．The old usually learn more than the young．

15．Teens want structure in their lives，which means they want their lives well-planned．To begin building structure，teens need love and trust．They need to know their parents are there to give them needed love and support （支持）．Teens want to be sure that nothing can prevent parents from shouldering their responsibility for them not their growing maturity （成熟），misbehavior，nor anger at something they have done．Teens want parents to keep control while allowing them to make some decisions．
    There are some ways you can help your teens create reasonable structure and remain close．One way is to spend time together．Parents often mistake their teens'increased interest in friends for a disinterest in the family．
    Teens would like to spend more time doing things with their parents，but watching TV is not counted as spending time together．As your teens mature，it is important you and your teens spend time alone together，one to one．Your teens need time to talk to you alone without any other family member present．
    Talk with your teens about their interests and concerns．Make sure you really show interest in what is happening．When talking with your teens，give full attention and do not stop them．
    The way to help your teens become adults is to let your teens into your world．Sharing your emotions and concerns with your teens is important．Avoid causing needless worry．
    Trust your teens．Don't expect the worst．Hope for the best．Telling your teens you don't like their friends will cause the teens not to bring their friends home．If something should go wrong，believe that your teens didn't do it on purpose．
    It is very important that you treat your teens with respect．Teens need the same respect adults show for total strangers．Don't talk down to your teens．
    You need to be supportive of your teens．What may be a small problem to you may be troubling to your teens．Teens don't have the experiences that adults have had．Let the teens know that you understand how much it hurts when something happens that is upsetting or hurtful to them．As they mature，they can look back at some problems they had and laugh at having been upset by something that now seems unimportant．
